RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Long-term treatment-free remission (TFR) represents a new goal for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In clinical practice, tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) dose reductions can be considered a means of preventing adverse effects and improving quality of life. We hypothesized that administration of low-dose TKIs before treatment discontinuation does not impair TFR in patients with CML who have a deep molecular response (DMR, ≥MR4 ). METHODS: We conducted a retrospective analysis of 77 patients with CML who discontinued treatment with TKIs. Twenty-six patients had been managed with low-dose TKIs before stopping treatment. Patients were to be exposed to TKIs for ≥5 years and to low-dose TKIs for ≥1 year and in DMR for ≥2 years. The loss of major molecular response (MMR) was considered a trigger for restarting therapy. RESULTS: In the low-dose group, 61.5% of patients received second-generation TKIs, and dose reduction was ≥50% for 65.4% of patients. With a median follow-up of 61.5 months, TFR at 12 months was 56.8% in the full-dose TKI group and 80.8% in the low-dose group, and TFR at 60 months was 47.5% and 58.8%, respectively. The median time to molecular recurrence (≥MMR) from TKI discontinuation in the entire cohort was 6.2 months. All patients quickly achieved MMR after resuming TKI therapy. Results appear independent of both dose reduction and potential pretreatment with interferon-α. CONCLUSION: This retrospective study shows that TFR was not impaired by low-dose TKI regimens before TKI cessation in Patients with CML. Nevertheless, prospective randomized clinical trials must be undertaken to analyze the probability of successful TFR in patients managed with TKI dose de-escalation strategies before TKI discontinuation.

RESUMEN

Central nervous system involvement by malignant cells is a rare complication of Waldenström macroglobulinemia, and this clinicopathological entity is referred to as the Bing-Neel syndrome. There is currently no consensus on the diagnostic criteria, therapeutic approaches and response evaluation for this syndrome. In this series, we retrospectively analyzed 44 French patients with Bing-Neel syndrome. Bing-Neel syndrome was the first manifestation of Waldenström macroglobulinemia in 36% of patients. When Waldenström macroglobulinemia was diagnosed prior to Bing-Neel syndrome, the median time interval between this diagnosis and the onset of Bing-Neel syndrome was 8.9 years. This study highlights the possibility of the occurrence of Bing-Neel syndrome without any other evidence of progression of Waldenström macroglobulinemia. The clinical presentation was heterogeneous without any specific signs or symptoms. Biologically, the median lymphocyte count in the cerebrospinal fluid was 31/mm(3). Magnetic resonance imaging revealed abnormalities in 78% of the cases. The overall response rate after first-line treatment was 70%, and the overall survival rate after the diagnosis of Bing-Neel syndrome was 71% at 5 years. Altogether, these results suggest that Bing-Neel syndrome should be considered in the context of any unexplained neurological symptoms associated with Waldenström macroglobulinemia. The diagnostic approach should be based on cerebrospinal fluid analysis and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain and spinal axis. It still remains difficult to establish treatment recommendations or prognostic factors in the absence of large-scale, prospective, observational studies.

RESUMEN

Primary or secondary immune deficiency (ID) is a risk factor, although rare, to develop Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM). We aimed to better understand the incidence of this occurrence in the real-life and the outcome of either entity. We conducted a review of 194 WM in the Poitou-Charentes registry and identified 7 (3.6%) with a prior history of ID. Across the 7 WM with ID, 4 progressed to active WM disease and required treatment for WM with a median time between WM diagnosis and the first treatment of 1.5 years (range 0-3). The median time from ID to WM occurrence was 8 years (1-18). WM could develop from ID, although a rare event. Our first action was to systematically decrease immunosuppression with long-term control of ID. Half of indolent WM remained indolent despite ID and for remaining WM none appeared of poor risk WM.

RESUMEN

We describe the case of a 30-year-old patient, suffering from composite S/ß + sickle cell disease. He was hospitalized following a vaso-occlusive attack with acute bone pains. Despite an analgesic treatment and transfusion of three units of red blood cells, a non-regenerative anemia appeared within 24 hours. One day later an acute chest syndrome with atelectasis of the left lung and desaturation and multi-organ failure occurred and necessitated the patient's intubation and required him to be placed in an artificial coma. A bronchoalveolar lavage was performed, which eliminated pneumonia but proved, after staining with oil red O, many neutral fatty acid microvacuoles in more than 80% of macrophages, suggesting a pulmonary fat embolism. The hypothesis of a bone marrow necrosis causing a pulmonary fat embolism was discussed and confirmed the next day by the characteristic appearance of the bone marrow. A therapeutic protocol associating iteratively bleeding and red blood cells transfusion was administered on the second day with the objective of maintaining haemoglobin S at less than 20% rate. Successive haemoglobin S assay was applied using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique with a quick response within one hour after transfusion or bleeding. This protocol resulted in an improvement in the patient's condition, with a gradual normalization of vital signs and extubation twelve days later and discharge without sequelae twenty-five days later. The succession of rare but serious sickle cell complications anaemia which occurred in this patient could be controlled by adapting the laboratory for the clinical emergency.
